I want to study Chinese medicine, mainly acupuncture. Now I'm teaching myself acupoints, and I've thought about finding a teacher or something.

Hello, if you just pass the exam, you can study step by step, but if you want to master a skill, you must study systematically. Judging from your current learning situation, it belongs to the entry stage, and it is recommended not to study blindly. You can walk a few steps by the side:

First of all, it is best to choose songs when learning acupoints, such as the song of lung meridian: "Eleven acupoints of the Taiyin meridian of the hand, Tianfu tactic of the cloud gate in the middle, chivalrous white and red, the lowest line of acupoints is missing, and the fish are as few as leek leaves." There are many such songs, which are very useful for learning. By memorizing this Song formula, the circulation of lung meridians, the composition and location of acupoints can be basically determined. Therefore, you can't just read books when learning acupoints and meridians, because you can't learn well in a short time. After learning the basics well, it will be easier to recite the meridians.

Secondly, we should learn acupuncture methods, that is, practice acupuncture. Acupuncture is a very practical subject. Learning acupuncture only studies the circulation of acupoints and meridians, which is just an armchair strategist. Therefore, some acupuncturists in ancient times advocated learning syndrome differentiation treatment and acupuncture methods first, and then learning acupoint selection. This is the best method and can be used for reference.

The third is to learn from the doctor's experience. There are only 300 to 400 acupoints for acupuncture treatment. Everyone knows the acupuncture technique. Why the curative effect is different depends on the experience. Practicing more is the best way, but the effect is not good in the short term. Learning from the experience of predecessors is the best way, so some doctors' experience sets and songs need to be learned and recited.

Finally, learning must follow a teacher's special and systematic study, constantly thinking, looking for information, and summing up frequently to improve learning efficiency.

This is just a simple statement. The specific learning methods are very complicated. Due to the limited space, we can learn from each other. 9857 15676@qq.com
